Side by side comparison among the 4 Facebook video converters

Part 3 Which Facebook Video Converter Should You Choose?

Above 4 are all exceptional Facebook video converters, but there are tradeoffs on either. Online converters, without the need to download software, are very handy to use, but also come with some common shortcoming. For instance, they have very limited output options, and the conversion process relies high on your network condition. That's why I don't advise you to use an online tool to rip a Facebook video clip that exceeds 10 minutes. Besides, it is hard to tell whether it is safe or not to copy videos on those online tools though all of them claim themselves as 100% safe. Ads and some sort of redirect raise my doubts. Anyway, you don't want to get ads following you around the internet.

VideoProc is the runaway winner here in most respects. It is 100% secure. No worry about getting hackers, viruses, malware, etc. The conversion speed is accelerated by level-3 GPU acceleration which enables you to convert hour-long video in just minutes. Better yet, there are output presets for you to post the downloaded video to Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube with the most appropriate format and parameter settings. So you don't need to check for the strict demand for videos on those media channels.
